I downloaded the server and I'm trying to get it going but it comes up with this:

Is it something stupid or something which I'm missing?

That screenshot is a tad too small to be recognizable.

Post a higher resolution one.

[X-Ryan-X]

Fucking automatic resizing. ¬_¬

Just a question before i continue, do you have to have the PC games?

[MrJax]

Just a question before i continue, do you have to have the PC games?

to run the server? no

..and if you're talking about that black console, that IS the server.

[X-Ryan-X]

Well how do you play it? I mean do you NEED the games to actually play it multiplayer if that makes more sense.

[Jani]

You're trying to play the game by running the server? Sounds stupid.

[X-Ryan-X]

Uh............god this is confusing me. >_<

When the server is up, how do i actually play MTA?

[Jani]

Well first of all you ask about the server and show a screenshot of the server running, and then you ask about playing the game.

Have you even read the manual?

[Vicer/Spitfire]

You need the Actual Game(s) [GTAIII or GTAVC] to play

You need the Actual Game(s) [GTAIII or GTAVC] to play

That was the question I was asking, thank you. How much are the games nowerdays?

[Jani]

GTA3 is pretty much free, I think Vice City is about £20.

[X-Ryan-X]

Cheers, I'll get it whenever.

[zerb]

Could even be alot cheaper depending on your location or maybe your local shops are doing any christmas deals

Now I'm at a gaming fork. Vice City or Smackdown! vs Raw 2006?

[So'lide]

Vice City! Dare to buy any violenced spankdown games.. Vice City haven't got any* violence!

*define "any" any useless and avoidable

[X-Ryan-X]

Hmm, My mate told me if you get one game you can goto any game island (Liberty City, Vice City etc.) on MTA. B.S. or not?

[Gamefreek]

Your friend is wrong. If you have VC you can only play on the VC map, same goes for GTA3 and soon SA (when mta:sa comes out).

[X-Ryan-X]

Lol, figures. So online is everything unlocked? (I'd imagine so but I'm too lazy to re-do the missions.)

[So'lide]

Nothing is locked.

[X-Ryan-X]

Right, I just need some money...

[X-Ryan-X]

Actually, should i just wait for MTA: SA to be released?

Yes, I know i can edit but this way, people will notice a new post.

[{Static}]

Well if you buy SA before MTA is released, you can make sure it works OK with your PC and get used to the controls and stuff.

[X-Ryan-X]

Good point.
